Chapter 107 I Can’t Keep My Salary

Quirrell took the small glass bottle doubtfully, then opened the cap and put it under his nose to smell it.

Merlin!

Such a strong vitality.

What's in the bottle?

Quirrell raised his head and looked at Sebastian in confusion. After seeing the other party gesture for a drink, he hesitantly put the bottle to his mouth.

This Sebastian probably doesn't have the guts to harm himself.

I'm in school now.

Dumbledore is watching!

Feeling the rich vitality in the bottle, Quirrell finally couldn't resist the temptation and drank all the water in the bottle.

Too little, drank too fast, didn't taste anything...

Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he felt a strong vitality spreading from his stomach and flowing to every part of his body.

For a moment, my whole body felt a lot more relaxed.

Before Quirrell had time to feel happy, he discovered that this vitality was running out of steam, and the energy flowing to his body was completely cut off.

Is this because the vial is too small and contains too little?

Isn't this really tantalizing?!

Quirrell couldn't bear it any longer and asked hurriedly.

"Professor Swan, what was that just now?"

"Can you give me some more? I can buy it!"

Seeing the fish take the bait, Sebastian grinned.

"That's the water that was used to soak the Philosopher's Stone. I spent a lot of gold Galleons to buy it from Dumbledore."

"I'm sorry, I don't have much on hand, so I can't sell it to you. The small bottle just now was just a gift of friendship."

"Of course, if we become allies..."

Quirrell was surprised. He had never expected that the vial contained water that had been soaked in the Philosopher's Stone.

Just soaking in water from the Philosopher's Stone can produce such amazing effects?!

How powerful is the Philosopher's Stone?

You must get it!

However, the most important thing now is to save your own life.

Thinking of this, Quirrell could no longer suppress his inner excitement and spoke anxiously.

"If I become an ally, can I get this water for free?"

"Free?" Sebastian glanced at Quirrell speechlessly, "I never do business at a loss."

"Only after you become an ally will you have the opportunity to obtain the right to purchase. I spent a lot of money to buy it, and there are not many in total."

"By the way, you are so weak? Do you need a lot of this water?"

"This..." Quirrell suddenly became hesitant.

"If you don't want to answer, you can go directly to Dumbledore to buy this water."

Seeing that he couldn't get away with it, Quirrell suddenly had an idea and thought of an excuse.

"To be honest, I was cursed when I was traveling last year. My vitality has been draining away, so I thought of stealing the Philosopher's Stone."

"Oh...I see!" Sebastian nodded, as if he suddenly understood something.

"So, we have no conflict over the use of the Philosopher's Stone. We are natural allies indeed."

"Yes! Yes!" Seeing that the other party believed him, Quirrell said hurriedly, "Let's form an alliance now."

"No hurry!" Sebastian waved his hand, looking fearless.

"If you want to become my ally, you must be strong enough."

"Let me ask you, two months have passed. What progress have you made on the fourth floor? Have you solved my problem?"

Quirrell's expression froze and he shook his head embarrassedly.

"No? Then have you found a way to deal with the three-headed dog?"

Quirrell shook his head again. "But I know this is Hagrid's pet. Give me some time and I can figure it out."

"Oh..." Sebastian rubbed his brows, looking like he had a headache.

"Your ability... is a bit weak."

"I don't know if it's wise to work with you anymore."

"Well, don't say I didn't give you a chance. Have you read the notebook I gave you last time? How are you learning the magic of love?"

"The theoretical knowledge is very solid, but..." Quirrell showed a hint of hesitation, "I can't release that magic yet."

"It's okay. I didn't expect you to cast that magic right now."

As he spoke, Sebastian took out a test paper and placed it in front of Quirrell.

"Since you have a solid theoretical foundation, do this paper first."

Quirrell opened his eyes wide and looked at Sebastian in disbelief.

are you kidding me?

As a professor, I still have to take exams?

It’s still an on-site exam!

"Don't get me wrong, Professor Quirrell. I just want to make sure that the person I'm working with isn't a crazy dark wizard."

"I believe that as long as one understands what love is, then that person will not be completely bad."

"All of them are essay questions. The more detailed your answers are, the better. If you answer based on your own experience, you can get high marks."

Sebastian looked at his magic watch, raised his head and said to Quirrell, "One hour limit, start now."

Quirrell opened his mouth and wanted to say something several times, but after thinking about the water that the Philosopher's Stone was soaked in, he finally lowered his head and started doing the test paper.

[What is love? Please discuss this question in detail from the perspective of caring for friends.]

【What is filial piety? Discuss in detail how to love your parents. 】

【What is maternal love? Discuss in detail the love a mother has for her children and how great this love is. 】

Please elaborate on your passion for life and how to maintain passion in life.

......

Quirrell, who was working seriously on the questions, didn't know that a few red light spots were overflowing from his body and then being absorbed by the castle.

very good!

Sebastian smiled with satisfaction.

There is still love in Qi Luo's heart.

In this way, there is a greater chance of saving him.

An hour passed in a flash. In order to pass Sebastian's test, Quirrell showed his true feelings and filled up the entire test paper with almost no gaps.

The moment he put down the quill, Quirrell heard Sebastian's words.

"I like your answer very much, Professor Quirrell. Congratulations. We are allies now."

"Here are two magic contracts. One is that if you fail to steal the Philosopher's Stone, you cannot have anything to do with me in any way."

"The other is for security, so that if the theft is successful, we can hold the Philosopher's Stone together."

"You can take a closer look and sign your name."

Quirrell took the two magic contracts and read them carefully.

Only then did he finally let go of the stone in his heart.

Both contracts are very strict.

The consequences of violation are also serious!

It seems that Sebastian really wants to steal the Philosopher's Stone.

Don't worry that this is a trap.

Quirrell let out a long sigh and signed his name happily. Then he looked up at Sebastian.

"The three-headed dog..."

Sebastian raised his eyebrows. "Didn't you say you had some clues? I'm not familiar with Hagrid, so I didn't get the solution from him."

"But don't worry. Apart from the three-headed dog and Dumbledore's methods, I know all the other professors' methods of passing the level."

"When the time is right, I will tell you everything."

"Also, from what I understand, Dumbledore still suspects that there is a thief in the school, so he hasn't put the Philosopher's Stone on the fourth floor yet."

"So, we have to wait patiently. I can be responsible for observing the principal's movements."

"In the meantime, you should slowly figure out how to get past the three-headed dog."

Comfortable...

Is this Sebastian's strength?

Now it seems that forming an alliance with him is indeed a wise choice.

The future is expected!

Qi Luo felt relieved instantly, thinking that he finally had hope.

He even began to imagine what it would be like if he successfully stole the Philosopher's Stone.

He rubbed his hands together and looked at Sebastian ingratiatingly.

"That... the water that was soaked in the Philosopher's Stone..."

Sebastian waved his hand, took out a large bottle and placed it in Quirrell's hand.

"One thousand gold galleons for a large bottle. It's a small business, so no credit."
